View Full Version : Got some loops here

I made these w/my program "Salvation". I dunno what kind of loops people want - but at least these are computer-y and seamless.
Make me an offer / trade / paypal / etc
or offer suggestions for improvements, maybe? are they too long? short? should I have more? what resolution do people prefer? I like 256x256 because its one of those nice magic sizes that opengl/direct3d works well with.

very nice seamless organic type loops. i would definitely use them in a performance. most folks here are using 320x240 or a 4:3 equivelant of so maybe you might want to render them out at that size.
i'm interested in this "Salvation" software you speak of. Is it an app you developed? What sort of capabilities does it have? How does it work? What platform?
nice work
:)

Thanks for the kind words, you get to see how "Green Mantra" works :P

The software is modular like many already existing (and emerging) vj apps. It is essentially a visual programming language. By connecting modules with wires, you are creating and modifying (in realtime) a program, and that program is running the OpenGL accelerated animation in the adjacent window. You can capture loops, or you can capture sessions.. I also wrote a fruityloops plugin version which helped immensely for sequencing longer choreographed pieces like these:

It runs on Windows only right now but I have written it from scratch in a way that should minimize the amount of pain involved in porting it to MacOs and Linux (anyone want to send me a Mac for a few weeks?)
